If you mirror it, it might be seen as copyright infringement.

Someone who actually gets to this thing, grab a copy. It's showing the web server is too busy right now.

My Favorite:

RIAA against music sharing? Not anymore!


RIAA to sue music sharers? Not Anymore

With the legal file sharing service kazaa still online, the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) today announced that it intends to offer the latest albums for download from riaa.org.

As you are probably aware, the RIAA has been pursuing a policy of preventing this activity in recent months

We have recently become aware that this approach is yielding only limited results and in some cases may in fact be harming sales and the artists' revenue stream.

The RIAA wishes to apologise for the heavy-handed manner in which the popular chinese site Listen4Ever was closed down, and would like to present the following items for free download as a token of its goodwill.

Of course the list is relatively small, but please be patient - we expect to offer over 300 next week. We also intend to offer pre-released movies in the coming months.

If what you want isn't on the list, then please try Kazaa Lite - available here

I didn't get a chance to mirror the site before they caught it (and don't think it's farked - they mosy likely brought it down), but I did get a screen shot of the index page.


I'll post a link to it in a bit. Very funny.

2002-08-28 9:23:17 AM  
The 403 is because they figured it out and shiat themselves, not because their site is getting too much traffic. It's a big site.

As of the moment, the page is still up, all of the downloads still work just fine.

I think their problem is that their server is getting too many hits at once, and it can't handle it, so you get the 403/Access Denied errors.

2002-08-28 9:24:57 AM  
Actually, the site is getting hosed from traffic. If you keep clicking refresh over and over, you eventually get the page.
